Qt 6.6 and 6.7 Make QML Faster Than Ever: A New Benchmark and Analysis
My employer, KDAB, is building an excellent Rust binding for Qt: https://github.com/KDAB/cxx-qt

I like rust but want to use Qt.
You can use cxx-qt or qmetaobject-rs. Or use Slint

Build a desktop app with Qt and Rust
Rust has several Qt bindings. The most popular are Ritual, CXX-Qt, and qmetaobject. Ritual is not maintained anymore, and qmetaobject doesn't support QWidgets. So CXX-Qt is our best bet for now.

DAW Frontend Development Struggles
Qt bindings for Rust also exist, although I'm not sure how mature they are: https://github.com/KDAB/cxx-qt/

Build a desktop app with Qt and Rust - LogRocket Blog
We're getting closer, but you're still likely to run into missing features in CXX-Qt at this point. If you do, please report it on GitHub!

Who "owns" Rust ?
This is no longer required in CXX-Qt as of this week (https://github.com/KDAB/cxx-qt/pull/428). Next release coming soon.
-
The first issue of Rust Magazine has been published 🎉🎉
From my understanding KDAB isn't trying to "replace" Qt. They're working on cxx-qt to make using Qt and Rust together much easier.

Rust: State of GUI, December 2022 – KAS blog
I second this. I wrote an internal Qt/QML app that ran on Windows, Linux, Android, and Raspberry Pis. We had ~20 Raspberry Pi's running this app in kiosk mode. If only KDAB/cxx-qt[1] were ready there, I would have done as much as possible in rust .
